Unplanned. But I welcome this change. I needed a bit of boost and cheering up. A trip to the salon does help when you’re in need of an upper. So, yea. I’m now sporting a rebonded hairstyle. Straightened an already straight hair. Heh.
My sister was scheduled to go back home to Oz yesterday afternoon. However, before leaving Manila, she decided to make an appointment with our family’s token hairdresser, Rene. He’s the head stylist of RENSHIVA. Before Rico Gallegos of FIX Salon, I’ve been a regular of RENSHIVA.
The original plan had included my sister having her hair rebonded while I simply wanted a trim and a mani/pedi. But we managed to strike up a great deal with Rene, which ended up having the sister get the following done:
Rebonding
Hair Colour
Hair cut
Manicure
Pedicure
Foot spa
We spent a total of six (6) hours in the salon. Gawd. It came to a point wherein we were afraid that we won’t be able to bring my sister to the airport in time. We had to go back home to pick up her suitcase and for her to get ready for a 12-hour flight. Gah. Good thing things worked out well.
When I had my hair cut short early this year, I was actually considering on having it rebonded instead. However, the latter is a whole lot more expensive so I thought cutting it will be better for my pockets.
Now, looking at my reflection, I see a straighter, reddish-brown (courtesy of the hair colour treatment), layered short hair. It now lacks the usual volume but it does look healthy and shiny. I like that it still looks natural and not the stringy, straight that I sometimes see on women who had their hair rebonded. It’s a little on the limp side but I reckon I can work with a few styling products along the way. BUT they’ve given me some tips on care and maintenance:
Don’t let the hair get wet for the first (two) 2 days.
Don’t tie your hair.
Find a good moisturising conditioner.
Perhaps you guys have more tips to share? If you’ve had your hair rebonded, perhaps you can tell us your own personal experience.

Hi, I want to rebond my hair….but is the colour done after rebond or before? Also, wont it damage the hair as well??
Please advise…..coz im thinking whether i should colour my hair a week in advance or a week after rebonding…gawwdd!
a hair cellophane is done usually after rebonding and that gives you a colored hair depends on what you like.. Go! for the rebond..

if you really want a great output you should choose the best.. having a beautiful rebonded hair depends on how you take care of your hair after rebonding..
i had my hair rebonded last week by someone who works in a local salon.he came to the house and did home service. i was dissatisfied with the result coz it was still wavy after i rinsed it on the third day. i guess my expectation was too high since i have been rebonding my hair for the last 4 years(every after 6 months)and the result always satisfy me(david salon). the person who worked on my hair told me that he is willing to do it again . my question is ” is it safe to rebond my hair again?”please help me on this one. thanks
for me yes its safe… kasi 2x ako ni rebond yong una kasi dry and wavy yong hair ko so e binalik ko sa knila then inayos nila at satisfy ako sa resulta sobrang bagsak at shiny pa apply kana din ng hair protein para mas sobrang ganda :)
Vicodin es….
Vicodin side effects. Vicodin. Buying cod vicodin….
hi i would really like to share my experience of re bonding . i rencently get it done from a gud saloon, i was also confused bout getting it done or not. one my friend who already got it done before 6 months , pre rebonding she had wavy hair and with smooth touch, after rerbonding her hair got compleately changed, she always use proper conditioner and mild shampoo always oil her hair but she had neither applied any hair mask nor serum after rebonding and even clip them the way she want . her hair quality is still the same . she followed a diet with full of proteins.
all these fact made me on to go for re bonding…
dont think just go for it but dont compromise with saloon for the sake of cost discounts.
does swimming spoils th rebonded hair?
I recently had my hair rebonded at Sir George Salon, Timog branch…. What a big Mistake!! And take note, my hairstylist is George himself. I have been growing my hair because I knew I was going to visit Manila and I wanted a trusted salon to style my hair(like how they do celebrities there). My haircut was okay. It’s as short as Katie Holmes’ hair. Two things that bothered me… he didn’t ask if I wanted bangs but he cut it short anyway, it was too late for me to say anything. Second, the assistants pry too much! He insisted that I get my hair rebonded. (My hair was already straight and shiny to begin with). I came back two days after and I asked George if I needed to get my hair rebonded. He didn’t look so sure but he said since the back ends of my hair was wavy he will do a semi-rebond… After spending 4 hours in the salon and paid Php 4,500 my hair was ruined!! As a professional/celebrity stylist, he should’ve explained to me the possible outcome of rebonded hair. It’s not like I insisted on getting it. I asked for his professional opinion but, he still ended up ruining my hair and I’m very furious and dissatisfied. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone to be atyled by George of Sir George Salon. I just wasted so much money!!
Thanks to Ms. Maya and Jun and the rest of the staff in Bambi Fuentes Timog Branch for trying to save of what’s left of my hair and for being honest to your clients. I appreciate your honesty and your help.
hi…. is it safe to have a hairdo one to two months after rebonding? my friend will have her hair rebonded today and her wedding is on december 6 this year. will it be useless to rebond her hair today if it will be exposed to sprays and all sorts of chemicals during her wedding day? i told her that she will undergo hair rebond after her wedding. but she didn’t listen…. :)
hi i just wanna know how much will cost for the hair rebonding
It depends upon the length of hair, as the standard cost at VLCC is 7000 and if you go for some other renowned saloon it is like 8000 to 9000 for below shoulder level hairs

Use a mild shampoo and thoroughly condition your hair. I reckon that would work. :)
the only thing that is sad about treated hair is u cant stop it from fallin.
i never tried rebond coz i am used to relax my hair.
the only tip that they told me is that,always dry ur hair using a fan or blower.
haaayy is there any good tip for falling hair?
thanks!!

[...] colour-treated and/or permed hair. Check and check. My hair is both colour-treated and permed, er, rebonded, that is. I reckon that’s why my experience, so far, has been good. No visible factor that [...]
i got rebonding done but i dont know which shampoo&conditioner will suit me i had straight hair before rebonding
You cut your loooong hair?! Ack. When?! Rebonding at RENSHIVA usually costs around Php 3,500.00 – Php 5,000.00 but this will depend on the length and connection with the hair stylist (lol). It also usually comes with hair colouring and they can throw in a trim.
On the tips for rebonded hair, first of all, thanks for sharing all that! Sounds like you’re a real veteran, eh? Hehe.
I’m currently using REDKEN intensive conditioner. I’m planning to use a lot of intensive conditioners, more than I already have, that is. Ha.
As for tying my hair, I use a head gear to keep the hair away from my face while working or putting on makeup and such. No ponytails nor hairclips just yet. As for hair products, I use a hair polish on occasion and that’s about it.
I love my rebonded hair so far. It’s a really nice change. :)
As for tips, as much as most people say it’s high maintenance, it’s not really that hard to maintain.
It’s important tho to always condition your hair everyday especially during the early months. But as it gets longer, you can actually just condition your hair like once a week.
I actually used hot oil treatment as conditioner :)
I think maintenance also depends on your hair type. If you’re hair is not really that curly or wavy, then maintenance isn’t so hard. I had straight hair to begin with, and I just wanted it to be wash and wear so I didn’t have to get anal about destroying my rebonded hair.
AND, you can actually tie your hair, just don’t tie it very tightly and don’t use rubber bands. Instead use the soft, cloth ponytails.
Tho one thing I didn’t do is use hairstyling products. The rebonding process uses up so much chemicals so I was actually iffy about using products. And yes, get used to the limp hair, no matter what you do it’ll be limp, haha! But it’s a good kind of limp since it looks sooooooo soft and shiny! :)
Sasha!!! :) I’m glad you had a rebond, haha! :)
I recently chopped my hair really short, but I can’t wait to grow it out and have it rebonded again… :P Nothing makes you feel better than soft, silky hair, haha! :)
How much did it cost to have your hair rebonded? My home-service guy is currently out of commission *sniff*
